[quote=Anonymous]He doesn't enjoy painting with you? Baking with you? Can you work together to bake a surprise for his parents? Is a game of dinosaurs really objectionable? I also don't condone violent play, but dinosaurs attacking dinosaurs seems perfectly natural at that age. If he feels like you disapprove of everything he enjoys, you're going to have a really hard time winning him over. Do you take him outside? Kick or throw a ball around? Build a make-believe wood chipper and gather sticks for it? Draw a chalk world on the driveway and set up his figures? Or a chalk racetrack complete with obstacles and rush some toy cars around on it? Bring him a personal notebook and a bunch of stickers and let him design his sticker pages? Can you get him engaged in an art project where he's building trees for his dinosaurs to hide behind or something?[/quote]
